Melted snowman | Search Results | Project Oriented - 1 views

  • Living in sunny Southern California, we don’t really have opportunities to make snowmen, so using a simple pre-printed sheet with the outline of a puddle and an overturned paper bowl the kids made their own melty, sunshine snowmen. They put the usual accessories on, with the exception of the sunglasses, and then wrote a sentence about where their snowman should move to or what happened to him. A lot of bang for the buck.

      K.2.3=Describe in words and pictures the changes in weather from month to month and season to season K.NS.3=Generate questions and make observations about natural processes.  This activity could be extended for special needs children by allowing them to explain to the teacher what they are thinking, and then the teacher could help the student express themselves through writing.  Kindergarteners don't know how to write very well yet, anyway, so they will probably need a lot of help and creative teachers to understand their written work.

    In this activity, students make a melting snowman out of paper, then they write about the snowman.  For example, they might say why the snowman is melting.  This activity incorporates a lot of language arts, but it also allows young children to think scientifically and notice things about their environment, such as weather and temperature.

      Standards: 2.DP.2 - Day to day and over the seasons, observe, measure, record and recognize patterns and ask questions about features of weather. (2.2.1, 2.2.2, 2.2.3, 2.2.4, 2.2.5, 2.2.6) Investigate how the position of the sun and moon and the shape of the moon change in observable patterns. (2.2.7, 2.2.8, 2.2.9)

      Extension: Students could use this activity as a stepping stone to study the phases of the moon in greater depth. The next step could be to model the changes of the moon as it rotates the earth by using a flashlight as the sun.

      Adaptation: This is a great physical representation to descripe words that may have no meaning to ELL students. Students are more likely to remember the phases because there is food involved and it was studied in a casual setting.
  •  
    Students can learn the phases of the moon as they enjoy a tasty snack. Students open Oreos up and remove ice to make the different phases of the moon.
